I don't think so.
A major difference is that as far as I can tell flutter is long term meant to be the main way to write native Android apps.
Flutter on web has this kind of problem due to how they handle text differently then a HTML does and HTML provides no way to customize it to the way they need it.
Flutter on Android, iOs, Linux, etc. won't have this problem.
Most modern UI's render with a graphics API like OpenGl (ES), Firefox does so for HTML.
- MrDresden 6y agoFlutter has not been designated as the long term means of writing Android applications. Given that the underlying Android system heavily relies on the JVM, the heavy emphasis on Kotlin support and the 3rd party nature of Flutter (you need to build bridges to use it) it is simply yet another x-platform tool to build mobile applications.
- dathinab 6y ago> 3rd party nature of Flutter Currently yes, but I believe long term this will change.
- MrDresden 6y agoIt could become the go to way in the future. Google is definitely gauging the enthusiasm of their developer base to see where they move to. It is what happened with Kotlin in the first place. And they aren't putting all of their eggs in the same basket as Jetpack Compose is now in active development and will, once ready, rival SwiftUI in functionality and power. I hope there will be flexibility and support for both in the future. Flutter has its positives and negatives as everything else. Same can be said about native development.
